To think it is disgusting to not wash your hands after having a poo?

I have recently discovered my dh does not wash his hands after a poo. I think this is very unreasonable. I have seen divided threads on whether it is disgusting to not wash your hands after a wee, and dh seems to think there would be division on this. I think not.

You're all with me, aren't you?

Grin @ "poo hand"

Sassybeast · 18/03/2012 20:25

Grim.

AKissIsNotAContract · 18/03/2012 20:32

Don't let him near your fanny with the poo hand either.

I watched a tv program the other day where they announced that 92% of men did not wash their hands after using the toilet.

"Dirty bastards" said I

OH "If I don't get piss or shite on my hands why should I wash them?" (He does)

Me " cos the last person who flushed the loo had shit on their hands and you touched the flush handle, you want to lick your hands"?

Yuk, yuk, yuk!

I once had a job in a museum doing a bit of everything, including cleaning the toilets every morning. In the ladies the basins were always covered in soap marks, dried-on puddles of water, hair, etc etc. In the mens the basins were always spotlessly clean... go figure!

mousymouseafraidofdogs · 18/03/2012 20:39

leave the bastard

Does your DH (that's D for Dirty) think that it would be okay for, say, canteen staff or nursery workers not to wash their mitts? Would he mind if the next time you went for a pop, you failed to wash then touched his hand or face?

Gross, yuck, grim.

openerofjars · 18/03/2012 20:40

Or poo, even.

He should wash his hands but poo hands really?? Do you people not own bog paper? Grin

PiedWagtail · 18/03/2012 20:44

Oh bleurgh. Gusting. No, YANBU!!!!

ViviPru · 18/03/2012 20:50

AKiss Grin I love you a bit. (Always have)

squeakytoy · 18/03/2012 20:50

I wash my hands, but I can quite honestly say, I dont ever remember getting poo on them... it goes on the toilet paper. I also agree that handwashing is fairly ineffectual if you then touch the tap, the door handle etc.

thegingerwhinger · 18/03/2012 20:53

I was going to quote the 10 sheets of paper thing but I see akiss beat me too it! Tis grim indeed. A perfect way to spread germs.

I get what people are saying about the taps having germs on them etc, but while we can't eradicate all germs, we can do our best to prevent the spread of them as much as possible. And washing hands is the best way to do that.

agedknees · 18/03/2012 20:53

His finger might go through the toilet paper and he may develop the ginger finger!!!

Honestly, your dh is disgusting.

McHappyPants2012 · 18/03/2012 20:54

squeaky i agree with you, and any one who owns this gullible

crashdoll · 18/03/2012 20:58

That bloody dettol touch thing....you get soap everywhere! I don't have one needless to say. I don't give that much of a shit about germs.

BoulevardOfBrokenSleep · 18/03/2012 20:59

AKissIsNotAContract said it upthread, but it bears repeating;

GERMS GO THROUGH LOO PAPER!

Saw an experiment when I was young; someone pressed their fingers against an E.coli sample though six sheets of loo roll, and then shook hands with someone, who shook hands with someone else and so on. The bacteria just carried right on down the line. Boak.

cantspel · 18/03/2012 21:12

Get yourself an arse bath and never suffer from poo fingers again

PfftTheMagicDraco · 18/03/2012 21:21

That's all right kiss, I wipe my arse with a whole roll, each time! I don't even unroll it!

SaffronDormouse · 18/03/2012 21:27

I can't eat in a fast food place where I see lots of young blokes working - haven't been able to for years.

I just can't get past the thought of how many probably don't wash their hands after the loo...
